Passport Stamps Along the Florida Trail

Passport stamps can be found along the Florida National Scenic Trail and in our 11 established Gateway Communities. A finished Florida Trail Passport will be awarded a stamp from the US Forest Service that includes the year your hike is completed.

The image above represents a Gateway Community Partner. A decal with this symbol can be located at the front of each business and represents a partnership with the Florida Trail Association**. In addition, many of these local businesses in each of the 11 Gateway Communities will be housing a passport stamp.

Many Gateway Community stamps are hosted by the community in a public building in town.

A hiker simply presents their passport to the business or community host to receive a stamp.  Please see stamp locations below

(**Please note that the public buildings hosting the town’s stamp will not have the FT decal in their window)
